Abstract:

Countless scientific and healthcare institutions across the United States are producing and using vast amounts of medical data to better understand patients and personalize their care. Current efforts to mine these huge, rich data sets to extract greater insights into complex human diseases like cancer, heart disease, diabetes, neurodegenerative disorders and many more are in their infancy. To achieve our vision we have begun accelerating the use of big data to generate predictive models of disease that will give clinicians new powerful tools to anticipate, prevent and cure disease far more effectively than we are capable of doing today. We are leveraging large collections of digital information from genetic testing, anatomic and clinical pathology data, imaging results, patient phenotyping and other data collected on our patients to precisely diagnose and treat diseases. The basic tenets of our approach are to: (1) Integrate multiple sources of raw data, (2) Generate algorithms and mathematical models to test hypotheses and statistically validate the data at molecular, individual and population levels with the goal to provide tools for diagnostic inferences and predictions, and (3) Presentation of clinically actionable knowledge to the end user. We believe this approach is not only tractable, but scalable, permitting use by institutions and healthcare providers around the world.
